Like a double rainbow, Yamauchi's vision can't be fully captured.

Gran Turismo 5 "Restricted" by PlayStation 3 Hardware
Gran Turismo 5 director and professional game delayer Kazunori Yamauchi has gone some way to explain why we've all been waiting so long for his latest racer - the PlayStation 3 isn't enough to contain his vision, apparently.

Revealing to Esquire magazine that development on the game was "restricted," the Polyphony Digital boss said that "with Gran Turismo 5 we've made it as clean and beautiful as possible within the confines of the space we're given - but of course there's a lot more that we want to put in."

According to Yamauchi, each iteration of the PlayStation has been limiting. "Software has to be created under the restriction of the hardware," he continued. "With each new PlayStation, the vessel has become bigger, but its still not enough."

Luckily for everyone, Gran Turismo 5 won't have any more delays as the game's just gone gold. Sony's still being coy on a release date, however.
